Flea Market
Sellers beware. We've heard that many of you have been flooded by unscrupulous
scammers. All we can say is to use your common sense in deciding which is a bona fide
offer. The alternative is setting up a registration system which would be a whole lot
more work for us all or losing the Flea Market altogether. Up to you.
